This guide is for owners of the Franke Triflow Olympus tap (discontinued in 2011) experiencing dripping issues. These high-quality replacement valve cartridges, complete with fixtures, offer a direct solution to stop leaks and restore your tap's functionality. A key caveat is that these spares are *only* compatible with the original Triflow Olympus and not its successor, the FilterFlow Olympus; check for colored dots on the handle levers to confirm.

The original Triflow Olympus tap, discontinued in 2011, has colored dots (red, green, blue) on the top of its handle levers. The successor, FilterFlow Olympus, has etched letters (H, F, C) on the handles.
No, these specific replacement valves are designed only for the Franke Triflow Olympus model and are not compatible with other Franke taps or even the later FilterFlow Olympus model.
It means the kit includes not only the main valve cartridges but also any necessary seals, O-rings, or small components required for a full and proper installation.
Basic DIY installation is possible if you are comfortable with plumbing tasks. However, if you are unsure, it is always best to consult a qualified plumber to ensure correct installation and prevent potential damage.

These spare parts are manufactured by TapSparesUK for the Franke Triflow Olympus tap.
If your tap is a Franke Triflow Olympus model (identified by colored dots on the handles) and is dripping, then yes, this replacement valve cartridge kit is designed to fix that issue.
Ensure the new valve cartridge is correctly seated and tightened. Check for any debris in the valve housing. If the issue persists, the tap body itself may have internal damage, or the wrong valve may have been fitted.
Apply a penetrating lubricant and allow it to sit for a few minutes. Use appropriate tools to carefully grip and twist the cartridge. Ensure the tap handle is fully removed first.
Verify that the valve is correctly oriented and that no internal seals are blocking the flow path. Check for any kinks in the flexible hoses connected to the tap if applicable.
Compatibility:
These valves are *exclusively* for the Franke Triflow Olympus tap model that was discontinued in 2011. They are *not* compatible with the later FilterFlow Olympus model. Always verify the colored dots on your tap's handle levers (Triflow) versus etched letters (FilterFlow) before purchasing.
Setup:
Replacing the valves typically involves turning off the main water supply to the tap, carefully dismantling the affected handle, removing the old valve cartridge, and installing the new one. Ensure all fixtures are correctly aligned before reassembling the handle. It is recommended to consult a professional plumber if you are unsure about the process.
Care:
These are internal valve components and do not require regular external cleaning. Proper installation is key to their longevity. Avoid using abrasive cleaners on the tap handles, as this could damage the finish.
